Negro Orators And Their Orations in Bloomington, MN

In reprinting these orations the editor has endeavored to present them here as nearly as possible in their original form.
No effort has been made to improve the English. Published in this form, then, these orations will be of value not only to persons studying the development of the Negro in his use of a modern idiom but also in the study of the history of the race. It is in this spirit that these messages are again given to the public.
